This is a review of our site visit to Hollins House and Pasatiempo Golf Course with the one and only Margy! This is the 1st venue we've looked in our search and a top contender! We are so appreciative of Margy, who squeezed us in during the hol...iday weekend.
Hollins House surprised us at every turn. The ceremony law, dining room, bar, patio area, and dramatic entranceway all felt like spaces with their own personalities. Did I mention there's AN OCEAN VIEW? Combined with the rolling hills, the scenic drive to Santa Cruz, and the scent of lemon and eucalyptus in the area, I'm not sure that it gets much better.
You could tell Margy's a pro - she was a pro at not only answering but anticipating our questions, for which we are very grateful, and we had a lot of questions. She was upfront about the cost breakdown, explained each line item, and seemed willing to work with us on budget and special touches such as a signature cocktails and flowers from my fiance's mother, a wedding florist. Margy's can-do attitude also helped my nervous mother open up and actually get excited for our wedding day.
Bottom line: This is a gorgeous venue with a very skillful, trustworthy, and lovely coordinator! We enjoyed our visit immensely and consider Hollins House at Pasatiempo Golf Club a top contender in our search.
